Video games company and The Picture Company have moved from Charles Square into the shopping centre as the second stage of the town centre demolition looms.

The regeneration of Charles Square is due to start at the beginning of June and businesses are moving out of the units, which will be brought forward to make a "shopping and retail street" joining Princess Square to the retail area where Crossway and Broadway used to be.

Paul Kenwright, owner of Virtual Games says: “We are really happy with our new premises in Princess Square.

“The centre management team have been excellent and we are delighted to be staying in Bracknell after 22 years.”

The Picture Company owner James Nelson added: “We’re really happy to be moving to Princess Square where we will have a dedicated photography space with larger studios.

“We have been photographing families in Bracknell for eight years and are extremely pleased to be moving our premises to Princess Square.”

Rob Morris, General Manager of town centre landlords Bracknell Regeneration Partnership said: “We are delighted that both retailers will be staying in the town centre.

“We believe that these businesses will complement the fantastic mix of retail offerings currently offered in Princess Square including food, fashion, gadgets, stationers and health and beauty.”
